    Sounds nice,

    haven't had time to look up the tech specs on the components, and I doubt I will unless you provide some links ;) but I'm sure one of our techs will get chance and post if there are any compatibility issues or better options

    One thing I would add is a solid state drive for the boot drive. This will allow you to take full advantage of uefi. If you do go with it a SSD create a 100meg boot partition and format it as GPT. You'll boot into Windows 7 x64 in a matter of seconds.

    Pretty good.

    Are you a overclocker?

    I am also interested in overclocking.
